Amazon has rolled out the Mac version of its Kindle-on-a-computer application, and it's open to e-book buyers in the UK.
Like the real Kindle - reviewed here - the Kindle application allows you to buy and download e-books from Amazon's online bookshop. Some 325,000 titles are on offer, the retailer said.
Amazon Kindle for Mac …

Not for 'classic' Macs

Why are developers getting lazy? This Kindle app, like so many these days, does not support PPC-based Macs, only Intel ones. Given that the Universal Binary idea has been around for so long, how hard can it be to make an app for both CPU types. Our Macs are perfectly serviceable, but we are being forgotten by Apple (no Snow Leopard), Google (no Chrome) and now Amazon.

Kindle for Android

Still no Android app? Really??? Nothing at all against paying for ebooks - would much prefer to - but ShortCovers' app is just awful, especially when compared to Aldiko, which is perfect, except it has no content.

So I'll continue to find creative ways to attain content, convert via Format Factory, and import to Aldiko until a usable app with legal access to a reasonable amount of content is introduced.
